Brand Ng: Travel

http://www.brandng.com/marketing/travel

Thoughts on marketing and advertising / Eric Ng. May 31, 2012. Is this a Billboard for Turkish Airlines? This London-Heathrow billboard is so poorly worded it feels intentional.  Turkish Airlines basically created an advert for United Airlines.  Its a waste of both their sponsorship with ManU. And their media dollars. Turkish and United are codeshare. Partners, and both are members of Star Alliance, but that should be of little consolation. Posted at 03:55 PM in Advertising. April 10, 2012. Or the Olympi...

Chris Cowpe | 1951 – 2013

http://www.chriscowpe.com/index.html

1951 – 2013. We hope that everyone will visit Chris here every now and again; when you want to just pop in and say “hello, mon brave”, remind yourself of what a lovely man he was and what he meant to us all or just to feel his presence “cheering you on from the touch line” as he once memorably described the role he played for so many of us. Visitors left 141 thoughts. April 22, 2013 at 3:27 pm. One of the true gentlemen of our game and an example of how it should be properly played. I wish his family all...

before it slips away: WeEatOurFeelings

http://beforeitslipsaway.blogspot.com/2009/03/weeatourfeelings.html

Before it slips away. Tuesday, March 24, 2009. I just can't resist. For all my anthropologist friends out there- once again, the genius of anthropology creeps into the mainstream. Http:/ www.nytimes.com/2009/03/24/nyregion/24candy.html? My girl friends and I call it something else entirely. When boys make us sad, when our jobs make us sad, when our moms or sisters or friends or global warming or teachers or bosses or experiences with sucking-at-life make us sad, what do we do? Sometimes i miss you so much.

Before it slips away. Friday, September 29, 2006. It's all Ideology, folks. Has, in theory, a separation of church and state. We have a democracy and a secular constitution. For example, is an Islamic Republic. 8217;s constitution is the Qur’an. Yes, a democratic state allows for religious freedom. No, an Islamic state may not—why is it surprising that a religious state does not proceed according to democratic values of mutual respect and equality? The McCarthy hearings, the current embargo on. May state...

before it slips away: It Takes a Village

http://beforeitslipsaway.blogspot.com/2009/03/it-takes-village.html

Before it slips away. Wednesday, March 04, 2009. It Takes a Village. Motherhood is a tricky subject. Everyone (in America anyway; let's be honest) judges mothers. Have a career? Hmmm DON'T have a career? Still have a social life? Is one of the best arguments for "It takes a village" I've seen. Guess what. Daycare is the modern version of The Village when it comes to raising kids. So are babysitters, and grandparents, and godparents, and friends, and teachers. . Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Before it slips away. Wednesday, December 27, 2006. The Price of Beer. What is it about the Price of Beer that makes it an universal ice-breaker? This is my friend Kjarten from Iceland. Whoa man, I hear beer over there is really expensive; is that true? Yeah, man, it's rough. But dude, you have to pay in POUNDS over here- that is almost as bad. So, if a pint in London costs about 3pounds, and last month I was getting .67pounds to the euro, then that would be like 4euros50 per pint? And dude, a tenner for...

Before it slips away. Monday, July 10, 2006. Published July 10th, 2005 in the Star and Tribune. It must be an eye-opening experience, realizing that you don’t know how to walk home. The route that many Londoner’s keep in their heads is not of roads but of underground train lines. Each morning they enter a tunnel, and some minutes later they emerge, blinking, miles and miles across the city. Check Call mom and dad in Minneapolis? Check Make sure all friends in London are ok? Check Watch the news? Nuji: a ...

Before it slips away. Friday, January 01, 2010. A Cultural Anthropologist in Brand Strategy? When I tell people what I do for a living, they usually have a ‘say what? 8217; look on their face. Either they don’t know what anthropology is,. 8220;oh my god, I loved dinosaurs as a kid! Or they do know what it is,. 8220;oh my god, I read about this ritual sacrifice they do in Africa! But they don't get the connections between symbols, rituals, human behavior, etc. and branding (see? You get it.). People commu...

http://beforeitslipsaway.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html

Before it slips away. Friday, October 20, 2006. I know I've already posted once about how much I like writing letters, but a few conversations lately have reminded me how important they are. As I've said before, I believe all letters are love letters- because if someone takes the time to write you a real letter, it's gotta be out of love, right? Like there is all this emotion and purpose and clarity that has. Anyway. Here I am, about to embark on yet another. But while I'm away, please write me letters&#...
